Can't find doors for homemade wardrobe

4 replies

Hi, would appreciate any suggestions for locating doors for a fitted wardrobe we are having built by local carpenter. He is making a plasterboard carcass on wooden frame so it will be plastered to look the same as the rest of room and have 2 sets of doors- it runs the whole length of a 3m wall and hopefully will house more or less everything!

I would like to find simple wooden shaker style doors, or 4 panel doors in white, or paintable, all the interiror doors I can find are for rooms rather than wardrobes and seem very wide. Are there narrower doors available? Budget about £100 a door. Ideas??

There are lots of online stores that make wardrobe doors to measure - I haven't used this firm but they seem to have what you're after.

Thanks- that looks promising, I'll talk to the carpenter again as he asked us to try and buy locally so he could take them back if there was a problem. Also we are trying to rush as its our daughters bedroom and they are currently sharing a bed in the spare room with all their toys on the loft! However as I am drawing a blank in the chain stores near here I may have to go online, thank you for the link.

Any of these any good - we looked at a couple and I think they have a shaker style - and do narrow ones too

Just looked up where the nearest Howdens outlet is to us and its on the industrial estate behind where we live! I feel both pleased and slightly foolish!. Thanks, will go and see them.
